definitely miss team thoughts tough work
We're definitely going to miss him. There's no question. But there's some things that are more important than hockey. He's going through some tough times and our thoughts are with him and his family, obviously. We'll just have to come through this as a team and work that much harder.
definitely miss thoughts time tough

confidence great job lacking missing night playing start struggling sure team
Right now, I think we're playing a team that's struggling and lacking confidence big time, and missing some guys. With the start we got it kind of made them feel like it was going to be a long night and we made sure we didn't let up on anything. We did a great job all night.
definitely miss pull team together tough
We definitely will miss him, no question, but some things are more important than hockey. He's going through some tough times with his family. We'll just have to pull together as a team and play well without him.
best keys missed obviously power
When he was out, you could really tell how much we missed him. He's one of the best defensemen in the world, I think, and probably very underrated. He jump-starts a lot of our offense, not just our power play, but obviously he's one of the keys on our power play as well.
fun knew lose rest tried
We tried today, no question. We knew we were in the quarter-finals with not much rest between games, but it's not fun to lose any game.
biggest ready
We were ready to play from the beginning, that's the biggest thing we take from this win.
allowed controlled gave good obviously puck start
We controlled the puck pretty well. We got off to a good start start, and obviously that gave us the win. It put them back on their heels. That allowed us to play a lot smarter.
deep fact forget game half periods played puck second wore
The second half of the game I thought we played really well. We were able to get the puck in deep and we were able to keep them in their end for long periods of time, forget that fact we haven't done a whole lot lately, and we just wore them down, I think.
black near stick switched tape white
I used black tape the whole game, but switched to an old stick that had white near the end.
confidence
Things are going well, you know, and confidence is a big thing.
best few knows last quite tournament
There's quite a few of us that are a little over 30 and who knows this may be our last big tournament together, we want to make the best out of it.
confidence finding
Right now, we've got a lot of confidence and we're finding each other on the ice.
confidence great playing
Ray's been playing great for us and we have a lot of confidence in him.
